| There are two ways default tiddlers can be defined: | ||
|
|
||
| * A [[title-list|Title List]] eg: `TiddlerTitles` and `[[Titles with spaces]]` | ||
| * Filter expressions, using [[filter operators|Filter Operators]] eg: `[tag[HelloThere]]` | ||
|
|
||
| At startup, the text of the system tiddler [[$:/DefaultTiddlers]] is retrieved and evaluated as a [[filter expression|Filter Expression]]. The resulting list of titles is then inserted into the [[story river|Story River]]. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I feel that we already explain here that a filter expression can be used to specify the default tiddlers. Perhaps we should consider rewriting this paragraph to further emphasize that, rather than add the paragraph above?

The paragraph has been there for years and extracting the information that DefaultTiddlers can handle filter expressions is not obvious and hard to find, as can be seen at the discussion at Talk
A bullet-list attracts attention to the points that are important. I did not want to remove the paragraph, because I think its OK to explain functions in different ways for different users.
But English is not my main language. So I would be happy for an example.

@Jermolene -- Is it possible, that Netlify also creates previews for the tiddlywiki-com branch? That would be nice. |

Hi @pmario I think I've fixed it, if you could kindly push an update to this PR to check. |

@Jermolene -- The preview has been built: https://deploy-preview-8729--tiddlywiki-previews.netlify.app/#DefaultTiddlers But there are 2 messages added to the PR thread. I am not sure if that is intended. See: #8729 When I do create a new DOCS PR we will see. |
Hi @pmario it looks like it is building these PRs twice, I'll have to investigate. |
